baby carriers vs. baby sling?

whats the difference? which one is better on your back (less pulling on ur back). i used a carrier once when my son was 3 months just to walk around the store and my back was killing me after just after about 30 minutes. i plan on using either one almost everyday. so any thing that anyone knows about them or has experienced with them please share. thank you.

My mom had an old fashioned ring sling when I was a kid, and when I was a teen and babysitting I used that quite a bit when they got to be toddler age. Now, the slings today may be different, but the fact that it pulled on one shoulder more than the other was rather painful. There's a reason backpacks have two straps, and when you focus the pressure on one side then it does pull you to the side. It was nice, I'd use it again, but there's better.
I used a cheap carrier with my daughter and I would be hurting badly by the time I had walked around 10-20 minutes, so I definitely hear you there. But with my second I bought an Ergo. It's designed to be better on your back and on theirs. Also, it goes to 40lbs, can be used in a side-hip position, and a back position so I figured if I did want the baby in the side hip position then that wouldn't be an issue. My son absolutely loved it and I liked being able to kiss his head, have him look around, and basically have him in a very natural position on me. He was centered on me so there was no pulling to one side and I basically felt secure with him in that position. When he got to over 20lbs then wearing him for anything longer than 60 minutes would wear my back out, but still not bad. He's close to 30lbs now and I still wear him for 30-60 minutes when we go out, it's not that bad. He still loves it too, and he's over a year.
So that's another benefit I'd say. Mine, I've used with my 4 year old putting her on my back when she gets tired on hikes. The other carrier I had (the cheap one) only really worked until she was 9 months old, and slings have an even shorter lifespan from my experience (unless you use them as a toddler hip hugger...)
